My home computer has broke

[S.P.G]

My home computer has broke and I mean broke.

at first It was just constantly restarting its self… so I unplugged it all to see if that would help,

now it wont even turn on at all….looks like I may have to get another, been about 2 weeks now no power any idea’s????

Try plugging it directly into the wall outlet and see if you can get power..once you have power we will go from there.

could actualy be a range of things. Does the powere light on your base unit light up at all ? if not it could be a new power pack that you need. They aint that expensive. Try finding a mate with a computer and loan his for a bit and see if that works. If it works then you know its the power pack. If not it could be a more serious problem.

IMO if it is a problem with something lke the motherboard your probably better off getting a new machine unless you can fix it urself.

If you dont knwo much about PC repair, etc I got a shitload of notes from college I could email you 2moro. Just PM me if you want them

Chemical King - I'm gonna buy a new computer after the New Year. I
have always used a PC. I have a Micron. I've heard so many good
things about Apple. Especially their "Final Cut" for video editing.

It seems that most of the internal parts like 1)hard drive 7200 v. 10,000
FSB same thing. Is the Apple thing all hype or do they have the
real deal?

I used Apple a lot of years ago and had no problems with it other than backward compatibility with older operating systems they had.

Suppose its down to personal preference
